In this ambulatory performance for urban parks and landscaped natural areas,
the two characters blend in with the environment they are discovering.
Moments of discovery and games of hide-and-seek
draw them close and pull them apart.
This tandem of childlike characters, one human and the other animal,
reveal their sensitivity, their capacity for wonder, their tenderness,
and their joy when in contact with the natural world around them.
All along the way, the pleasure they get from observing their environment
inspires passers-by to join in the wonder.
The initial route taken by the characters is determined beforehand,
making allowance for the footpaths taken by passers-by and spectators,
so as to provide them with “windows” from which to observe.
We also look for suitable spots where we can bring people together
at certain key moments during the performance.
